Clarion pu2294a(c) aux hack

[Mac5004]

Hi newbie here but have owned loads of 306 I love them
Right I have just brought a clarion pu2284a© standard head unit
And have heard you can hack the cd changer port
And fit a headphone lead so you can play your ipod
Through the unit fooling it to make it think there is a
Changer in place.

Had anyone done this if so HOW please
I would be very great full

Thanks Mark

I think audioleads do an adaptor to do this.

heres a connects 2 adaptor. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CTVPGX010-Peug...4ac1bde047

Yeah, those connect2 adaptors are pretty good tbf.

[Mac5004]

I know about them but I want to hard wire
It in

You what?

The link is to a hard wired device, that is not one of those shity FM transmitter things.

You plug the "connect2" device into the cd changer socket on the back of the headunit, connect the 3.5mm jack into your phone, MP3 player or whatever you want. Press the cd changer button on the headunit and your music will come through the headunit.

How else do you want to wire it up?

Did you see this link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CTVPGX010-Peug...m4ac1bde047

[Mac5004]

Yes I have seen these before but have been told
Of a way to do it by connecting the lead direct and adding a resistor
Would add a picture but don't know how ?

[DeeTurbo]

Sorry I can't help with that. Yes there is a way to fool the headunit with a resistor on one of the pins and connect to audio to signal straight to the some other pins but I don't know which or what value resistor to use.

I think someone done it over on the gti6 forum.

If anyone on here knows it probably be Cully.

Goodluck with finding out.

[Mac5004]

It's connect the lead to 18,19,20 and a resistor to 13,15
But don't know what size resistor or if it works

[DeeTurbo]

If you have a breakers near you, you could take a multimeter down with you and measure those pins on a cd changer, if you can find one?

There is this other Connect2 just for Ipods that will charge it and you can control it from your headunit/steering stalk.

Hope this works to show picture just hope it's right
But need the resistor size

[DeeTurbo]

The colours don't look to clear on that at all.

It looks like it might be brown(1) black(0) brown(x10) so 100ohm?

Like I say you can't really be too sure of the colours.

Where did you find that pic?

[Niall]

Assuming of course they have used the right colours and not just random ones for the purpose of the diagram!

[Mac5004]

It was on a post in auusiefrogs

---

I have tried this with a 100ohms an not working
Have read some were saying 60ohms but nor
Seems to say here this way and it works

---

Aussie frogs is we're I got the diagram fron

[Mac5004]

I have tried a 60 ohms and 100ohms still not working
Surely some one has done this before HELP !!!!

[cully]

cant find nothing about this on the net everywhere says use an adaptorbox
post the link to the aussie frogs page

[cully]

hmmmm interesting go's off to experiment

[Mac5004]

Well if you get it working let me know please mate

[Mac5004]

Any joy ?

[cully]

its not going to work with a resistor have tryed 1Mohm> zero and no joy
easyer just to change the head unit for a carboot spiecal

[Mac5004]

I just want to do this not buy a radio this
Way is more fun if I find away I will let you know
Or if anyone else does let me know

[DeeTurbo]

I've bought the connects2 aux box for my girlfriends car and the inside of the box looks a bit complex.




So you can see you need more than an resistor to get it to work.

[C.A.R.]

I have the connects2 aux box too, useful and neat solution. I tried the iPod one which was good as you could switch through tracks and it charged too, but I had 2 failures which I returned and bought the simpler aux version instead.

[cully]

hmmm sorry to say youve got me looking at this again!

[DeeTurbo]

hmmm sorry to say youve got me looking at this again!

Haha, no worries. If you want to know or close ups of any of the components let me know.

Good luck with your investigation.

[cully]

one things for sure it wont be a £25-£50 box

[DeeTurbo]

This might be some help.

[Mac5004]

would love to find a solution to this still looking lol
